Well, of course. What Rainbow presents here is what I am commenting on.

  • She could be full of **** and just seeking attention for years on PC dealing with the same issues for years, to watch people's responses.
  • She could be making all this up and sitting on her computer eating ice cream.
  • She could be having a sexual relationship with her T and wants more, but only tells us she misses her hand holding so much.

It is actually really sad; spending so much time and energy (as posted) creating a relationship that you pay for, while ignoring the ones that are in front of her.

This is why many people compare therapists to prostitutes. Clients who work with prostitutes often try to create relationships and its all about their pleasure. Paid for, but they get what they want. Prostitutes often fake their pleasure during the "relationship" --- because no client wants a cold, completely unattached person during the meeting. Oh and if you don't pay the worked out deal --- you don't have a "relationship" anymore.

One reality is true: Therapists are paid to do a job to help us. The relationship is "real," but not realistic because of the nature of the relationship and the boundaries involved.
Thanks for this!
